SULPHUR MEDIUM (DOUBLE PACK) (Part I) & (Part II)

Thiobacillus thiooxidans are single-celled aerobic sulphur oxidizers that can reduce significant amount of inorganic sulphur compounds. The sulphate-reducing bacteria contribute greatly to tuberculations and galvanic corrosion of water mains and to taste and odour problems in water. Thiobacillus, by its production of sulphuric acid, has contributed to the destruction of concrete sewers and the acid corrosion of metals. Sulphur Medium is prepared as per the recommendation of APHA for cultivating T. thiooxidans. This organism was first discovered by Waksman and Joffe in soils containing free sulphur and rock phosphate. T. thiooxidans derives its energy by the sulphur oxidation and survives at very acidic pH levels.
